[turnedup]

1.BOB ARUM in 2000 admitted during a federal trial that he bribed the International Boxing Federation president in order to gain a more favorable rating for one of his fighters. [5][6]

He was penalized $125,000 by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in 1995 for a bribe to get one of his fights sanctioned.

Boxing: Arum admits bribe over Foreman fight
PROMOTER Bob Arum has admitted in a New Jersey courtroom that he paid $100,000 (£62,500) in bribes to Bobby Lee, the International Boxing Federation president, in order to have a fight approved between then-heavyweight champion George Foreman and Axel Schulz of Germany.


Anyone care to argue this?

I know you used Arum as the example but do you honestly and realistically think this is limited to Arum? If so please explain how GBP got Khan listed at #2 at 147....or how Ostugezen (whatever his name is) just got whopped for 9 rounds and ended up in a draw? Or for that matter how Robert Guerrero became a mandatory after his one and only fight at 147?

Didn't watch the last one, but may I add that I was happy he wasn't considered for the next Money Fight.

You have Pac Fans that wanna see the fifth fight. For redemption.

You have JMM fans that wanna see him retire and take the memorial win with him.

you have Boxing fans that just wanna see a good fight and to them it really dont matter.

Then you have Floydmos that dont want Manny to redeem his win. Just because thy dont like Manny!

He didn't use it as an example the topic is about this very thing with the same people , Arum has been bribing fighters and organizations for years , and its obvious that the WBO aint going to order a super fight of the back of a loser beating a B grade loser , unless the road is well greased and Arum is a great grease monkey .

That's where you got it all wrong , Manny needs to " earn " the fight , beating B grade losers from lighter divisions don't cut it , people are sick of Manny fighting bums and calling out the big guys , EARN the fight by beating in the very least a top ten winning WW , he could have fought Alvarez but Arum paid him to keep quite when Rios was chosen instead .

Roach
Rios is a 135 guy had a couple at 140 at 147 he wont handle Mannys speed and power , we chose Rios to make Manny look good .

That don't deserve no WT super fight .

Actually he did and then mirrored it by posing a question and I replied to him with several of my own questions. Listen I think I asked logical and realistic questions. Has arum done it? Yes!! Have GBP done it? Absolutely...it's why I asked for one person to explain how Khan is #2 at 147

No,real boxing fans already paid for this **** 3x already and a 4th time is excessive. It's not the fans fault Arum has allow his 140 and 147 stable to dry up and your boy is running out of quality opponents.

Marquez is the boss up in this b1tch. How is anybody gonna give the boss orders? The wbo aint running ****. Throw that trinket in the bin Dinamita
